Chris Mortensen is reporting that Jets and safety Ed Reed are finalizing a deal to bring Reed to New York.
There we go. RT @mortreport: Ed Reed and Jets on verge of agreement, per league sources.

As we reported earlier, Rex Ryan has discussed the addition of Reed with GM John Idzik. The move would bolster the one area where the Jets are weak at defensively.
Update***
Ed Reed is officially a Jet.
We bolstered our secondary THURS, agreeing to terms with Ed Reed a day after the veteran S cleared waivers.
